Recently bought a Bluetooth OBD2 dongle and downloaded the torque app for my new-to-me scudo camper.

By mental maths (non board computer) of the fuel guage / miles driven the mpg works out around mid 30's. Internet recons the base van should get mid 40's so ok with that.

<span style="font-size: 0.8rem;">I've plugged the obd dongle and the torque app recons I'm getting 17mpg or around 1/2 reading.</span>

More for curiosity, anyone else used the torque app and found it reliable & accurate?

US vs imperial gallons? Doesn’t explain it all though.

Ignore it

Litres used Vs miles covered you won't get anything more accurate.

Best thing you can do with torque is throw it away. I have an interface amd the app as so many folk on here swore by it.....found it very limited and very random in its diagnosis compared to my other diag systems which were not much more expensive.

Also do not be tempted to leave the OBD2 part plugged in . A friend's caught fire and he nearly lost his Saab 92 tid
